This is great news. I am new here but have heard a lot about these blogger meets. Am very happy to be a part of one of them finally!!!
See you all there...TC.
Cheers,
PR (loangyan)
this is going to be my first time ... though I have been blogging for ages now.. My latest blog is though just two years old but the first one I started in 2004. http://virtualcitizen.blogspot.com/2004_10_01_archive.html ... look forward to it...
Thank You. This is the first time, I have to attend the meet. Send me the details.
Can't wait. Can't wait. Last time it was in March 2009 and I was there. I was thinking about this and voila! I see a mail. Glad.
Haven't been blogging at a decent pace. Atleast meeting you all should get me back on tracks! Look forward to meeting every one of the Indiblogger team, and fellow bloggers! Just can't wait. :))
OMG This is awesome. I really hope to meet all the bloggers then. Can't wait for my first bloggers meet. :)
Never attended a 'blogger's meet'.. though someone needs to involve MORE people than only those who are able to reach Chennai (or any other single venue).
Why can't such meets have real-time online participation.. large screens with online participation?
I really felt bad, that i missed the blogger meet at Bangalore. I'm exited that i can make my presence over here
I am looking forward to the meet and the thought of meeting other bloggers and sharing ideas with them really excites me!thank u.
looking forward to meeting like minded bloggers! excited! we had infact planned one for fashion / craft bloggers from chennai named Blogger Koottam which will happen soon!!!!
Wooohoooooooooo its been more than a year since the last time at GRT...I'm totally IN!!!
வணக்கம் அனைவருக்கும் இன்டிப்ளாக்கர்ஸின் கலந்துரையாடலில் கலந்து கொள்ளும் அனைவரையும் சந்திக்க ஆவலுடன் காத்திருக்கிறேன் சென்ற முறை ஜிஆர்டியில் சந்தித்த உரையாடல் இன்டிப்ளாக்கர்ஸ் இரண்டாவது சந்திப்பு சந்திப்போம் மகிழ்வோம்.

Delighted to see the lists of the Bloggers and their contribution.I do not know the origin of the Motto lines,but the motto 'I Blog,therefore I am' forms part of a poem by me on blogging.I am proud to say I Blog therefore Iam'.
http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/579705/blogging_is_my_birthright.html?cat=15
This is my blog-post on blogging.
Blogging is my breathing!
Blogging is my food!
Blogging is my way of life!
Blogging is my birthright!
Blogging is my Heartbeat!"
Once Socrates told:
"I think: Therefore I am"
Now these are my words:
"I blog! Therefore I am"
I am attending the Bloggers meet at first time.. I am eagerly waiting for the event.
I am surprised that all the seats are not taken up. Where all the bloggers from Chennai have gone? It is such a fantastic event that one cannot afford to miss.
It was a grand TATA Grande Bloggers Meet. Kudos to the Team of Renie, Anwin, Anoop and all.
Best,
Susan
